Quicksales
Quicksales (typeset as ''quicksales'') is an online auction site based in Australia, and the second largest auction website in Australia.〔http://www.girl.com.au/oztion-animal-rescue-auctions.htm Girl.com.au OZtion Animal Rescue auctions article〕 According to the site there are more than 1.8 million items available for auction or purchase and, as of 8 July 2013, there are over 515,000 member accounts.
==History==
The website was founded as ''OZtion'' in 2005 by Melbourne based Philip Druce and Kelvin Yip.〔http://www.prweb.com/releases/2005/03/prweb222340.htm 2005 Press Release (Philip Druce, Kelvin Yip)〕 By May that year there were 2000 members and over 9000 items for sale. The website rose to prominence in May 2008 after rival auction site eBay announced it would force all customers to use PayPal for payment processing. Although eBay later reversed their decision, in six weeks OZtion's sales jumped 50% and its member based jumped by 28,000 to 275,000.〔 The number of new signups also rose, from an average 250 new members per day, to 650 per day.
In June 2008 the founders sold the website to the listed media company Jumbuck Entertainment for $2 million in cash and shares. In April 2010 Jumbuck sold the website to online classifieds company Carsales.com for $1.1 million. On 7 February 2010, the website changed its name to Quicksales.〔http://www.oztion.com.au/Company/news.aspx〕
In 2012, Quicksales became increasingly integrated into sister sites on the Carsales network, handling accessory listing for Carsales, Bikesales and CaravanCampingSales. In turn, stock from these sites were listed on Quicksales to give buyers a greater degree of choices to search from. In July 2012, Quicksales was relaunched, offering free classifieds listings. The site was redesigned, losing the green hue that had been present since its launch in 2005.
